Optimizing mowing strategies for controlling Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl. in roadside habitats
Abstract Introduction Road verges provide refuge habitats for semi‐natural grassland species but can also facilitate the spread of invasive alien plant species such as Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl., which negatively impacts biodiversity. Objectives We studied how different mowing regimes affect L.

Gas exchange and pulmonary stress variations during SCUBA and breath‐hold diving in open seawater
Abstract figure legend Healthy, trained divers were studied before, during and after diving in open seawater with different techniques. SCUBA divers (diving to 15 or 40 m with air; cycling at depth) and breath‐hold divers (BHDs; sled‐assisted dives to 15, 25 or 40 m) underwent underwater and surface arterial blood gas (ABG) sampling.

hERG1 channels and potential therapeutics for long QT syndrome
Abstract figure legend Prolonged QT results from hERG1 channel dysfunction. (A) Physiological anterograde trafficking of hERG1 channels to the plasma membrane, leading to a normal electrocardiogram. (B) Prolonged QT results from the presence of fewer hERG1 channels on the plasma membrane due to decreased anterograde trafficking or reduced function due ...
